Answer a Question with a Question...

[StarSong]

Many regions or states have local specialties based on who settled there and what grows well in the region. Texas's version of Mexican food (Tex-Mex) is quite different from California's version. Kansas City is famous for BBQ, which is not the same as Texas's famous BBQ. Minnesota and adjacent northern, middle of the country states were largely settled by Northern Europeans so their traditional foods tend to lean that way. Southern food is its own animal altogether.

Do various regions of England have specialty cuisines?

I'm here in the MIdwest, but have traveled to the New England area. They eat scrapple... something from the Pennsylvania Dutch heritage. It's scraps of pork mixed with cornmeal. I did NOT like it!!! The South talks about liking chitlins and grits. I've eaten both and have enjoyed them. Chitlins (chitterlings) and mountain oysters taste really good until some folks find out what they are.

Do you enjoy trying different cuisines? Where do you go for recipes? Or, are you content with your current diet and not interested in trying new food choces?

 

[Tish]

I love trying different cuisines, I go to Google for new recipes, where do you go to get new ones?

 

[hollydolly]

I go to Youtube for new recipes...don't you ?

 

[Kaila]

Do they cook the food for you, and offer samples?

 

[hollydolly]

Have you lost your mind ?

 

[Kaila]

Is it that obvious?

 

[SetWave]

Can't you tell???

 

[Patch]

Don't you know my persistent psychological problems are only shared with the numerous voice in my head?

 

[Murrmurr]

Do they ever get you into trouble?

 

[Rosemarie]

Don't you find it comforting to have your other self to confide in?

 

[hollydolly]

Confidentially, do you trust yourself to keep your secrets ?

 

[StarSong]

Nah.... I hold very few cards close to the vest. Don't you think there are very few secrets in life, particularly these days?

 

[Kaila]

Is my wildly creative imagination anything of a secret around here?

 

[Kaila]

Btw, on a different topic mentioned above, (barely mentioned! )

I've always liked vests, but they are rarely worn, nowadays.
Do you have any, and do you ever wear one of any type?

(Starsong obviously has at least one, but does not keep her cards there, apparently )

 

[Rosemarie]

Is my wildly creative imagination anything of a secret around here?

A vivid imagination is a great asset.....don't let anyone tell you otherwise...they are just jealous!

 

[Rosemarie]

Yes, I wear vests...but in America a vest is what we call a waistcoat....which exactly are you referring to?

 

[Kaila]

Thank you for that wonderful viewpoint about imagination, Rosemarie! I wish I'd had you around, when I was younger.
It took me many decades to realize the truth of it being a very potentially positive asset, after having been strongly told the opposite.

I think I meant all the varying sorts of vests, (for males or females)
probably waistcoats included, but not primarily those.
I've had all sorts of fabric, and crocheted and knitted ones, and self-designed numerous original types.

Has anyone else enjoyed wearing vests, or just liked the look of them?
(Are yours knitted or sewn fabric?)

 

[Rosemarie]

I always wanted one of those crocheted ones which were popular during the sixties, along with those afghan coats.
When you watch the old movies and programmes from that era, are you surprised at how smart everyone looked?

 

[Tish]

I am very surprised are you?

 

[SetWave]

Wouldn't you rather say, shocked?

 

[hollydolly]

This is a vest in the UK...

Waistcoat....

which do you prefer ?

 

[Murrmurr]

Which do you think would look best on me?

 

[Rosemarie]

Does this mean one can be wearing two vests at the same time, one as an under-garment and one over your shirt?

 

[hollydolly]

Which do you think would look best on me?

I can see you in the blue waistcoat what do you think?
